    People live their lives by faith. The question is, "Upon WHAT do you rest your faith?" This sermon (based on the hymn) answers that question.

    Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Salvation is a word that finds its way into most religions. It is in the definition of that word that Christianity separates itself from all other so-called attempts to ...read more

    We learn from this sermon what it means to be a bold witness, what bold witnesses can expect to encounter, and what God does through bold witnesses.

    BOLD WITNESSES Acts 4:8-20 We recently had an encounter in our church’s regular weekly outreach program where one of the families we visited accused us of harassment. We weren’t guilty, of course. But I still had to spend some very anxious moments at the local police station trying to sort ...read more
